Meet Gamma!

First things first: by gosh golly goodness, where have I BEEN all this time?? XD

Wait a sec, I know how to jazz up the ordinary snores of life a bit...
Okay, I haven't blogged in forever because I have been scaling mountains of bountiful knowledge! (Read: homework) I have been taming wild beasts that roam the Carpetlands! (Read: Playing with my two cats) I have been on a wild untamed adventure with imaginary friends to slay a dragon! (Read: reading the Hobbit) I have been creating a Dalek out of styrofoam and cardboard! (Read: No, actually, that is what I've been doing!)

Ladies and gents, meet Gamma.
YAAY! :D He's my little Dalek that I've been working on for ... oh boy, I can't remember... but a LOT of weeks now. He's constructed entirely of craft items (wire, styrofoam, polymer clay, cardboard)
Here's a breakdown of his crafty anatomy:
Also, I forgot to get a picture of this, but he has a clay stick in his neck piece and a hole in the bottom of his head dome that allows his head to swing around.
Hmm, let's try a rough blueprint in Seashore...
Hopefully that made sense? Ah, well.

I really like him. :)
Good thing is, Gamma isn't all gung-ho with the 'Exterminate!' business. He's a rather polite Dalek, for a Dalek.

Before I go: Shout to Kate, who inspired me to make Gamma. Kate, I wish I could meet your levels of crafting brilliance. Truly. The Doctor himself would be inspired by you.

Thanks for reading! Gamma is anxious to hear your thoughts on him. :)
